Figure 1 in Eradication of African sacred ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus) from South Florida, USA: a collaborative early detection and rapid response case study

Figure 1. Map of Florida (left) and southeastern Florida (right) where a successful eradication of African Sacred Ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus) took place in 2008. Early detection at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge by a University researcher prompted a concerted effort to capture birds and employ the scout technique on two transmitter affixed birds. The scout method and reported species sightings resulted in identifying additional roost locations (4) where shooting operations took place.
